There are three ways this could end for America, arranged from best to worst for Americans: An overthrow of MAGA followed by progressive rule to fix the underlying causes of this mess, the disintegration of the Union into several medium-sized states and unimpeded MAGA rule in the United States. All of these can be preceded by civil war or all sorts of sociopolitical turmoil, but one of them will happen within the next five years tops. Also, since nothing I've seen these past few months convinced me that Americans are capable of taking the reigns of power back from the fascists, what we're really looking at is either complete disintegration or Nazi Germany. My point being: I don't know if America will survive, but you better hope it doesn't.

Two wrongs don't make a right, but I can't see the countries who have suffered under our thumb for so long and whose histories have been drastically changed due to our intervention (Chile, Iran, just as two off the top of my head examples, there are many, many more) having much sympathy for us.
We, in fact, don't.
Modern Zionists believe that political and secular Zionism is a tool given by God to enact his divine plan and to initiate the return of Jews back the land of Israel.
Early modern Zionists (including Herzl himself) overwhelmingly didn't believe in God in the first place.
Obviously, there's a great deal of debate among Jews about which theological branch is correct, but either way, the origins of Zionism aren't purely secular or nationalist.
You should look up Theodor Herzl. Early Zionists were straight up voting on whether they'd build their Jewish state in Palestine or Uganda, and the vote was pretty narrow if I'm not mistaken. The rationale for choosing Palestine was that it'd be easier to get religious Jews (which the guys who were thinking up this stuff were absolutely not) on board. Like, do you think Ben Gurion or Golda Mier were having theological debates?
This is a reasonable point, but it's also not what you said previously.
Iran and Yemen aren't Palestine, so the problems we have with Israel's war against Palestine and Palestinians don't apply there.
They do. Israeli aggression is most intense in Palestine, but it's not exactly a saint with its other neighbors.
Unless, that is, you aren't on the side of Palestinians at all, but instead just want to see Israel defeated
I do want to see Israel defeated because they keep fucking up everything for everyone else, especially but not only Palestinians, and because Apartheid states shouldn't exist. Your point?
The situation in 2011 (when Iron Dome's development started) was not this one, so start there.
It was. Israel has been deliberately keeping Gaza under chronic malnutrition and on the brink of economic collapse for two decades, and settlements constitute ethnic cleansing. The Gaza genocide is the worst single crime Israel has committed in its history, but it's far from the only one.
They're very high on mine. They created the conditions that allowed Trump to take power. They've fought tooth and nail to keep everyone who might have been able to prevent this disaster away from the levers of power. The Democrats are the rachet preventing the rest of the country from stopping (or gasp reversing) the Republican-led march to fascism.
I mean, Mamdani and Bernie proved that this is a very solvable problem. Small dollar donations are more than enough to get a candidate with popular policies into victory.

Well then maybe they should've done something while they had that power.
-
The Democrats have eagerly given up what little power they had to obstruct Trump's agenda.
-
Political power is about a lot more than the power afforded to one by their political office. The Democrats should be out there whipping the sane two thirds of America into action, not sitting on their asses and sucking off Mango Mussolini.
Pretty sure conservatives only get naked if there are children involved.
In the sense that the Union prompty quashed it yes, but we all know that's not what he's talking about.
You killed Gary :(.
